Meet Our Chapter

Safe Families for Children began in 2003 in Chicago. Our goal is to engage families via faith communities to open their homes to care for vulnerable children. We desire to help families before a major crisis hits with the hope that we can keep families intact, minimize children entering foster care, and reduce abuse and neglect.
In 2014, God led three families from Chicago to bring the movement of Safe Families to the Cleveland area. We are looking for volunteers who sense the Lord calling them into a ministry that will impact others while creating opportunity for their own family to minister together.
